Ready in time for the coming school year, the new home for the School of Communication and Media at Montclair State University has been designed to evolve with today’s mutable newsroom and media landscape.
The building’s design, courtesy of CannonDesign, merges faculty, professionals, and academic programs in an effort to re-imagine the future of communications and media. The new space includes a 197-seat presentation hall powered by Sony Digital Cinema Projection and Dolby 7.1 Surround Sound. A 40-seat screening room powered by the same technology complements the presentation hall.
